Test Drive Meme

Comment here with your characters that you're thinking of bringing into LR, and tag around with other people to see how suitable they'd be for the game!

As a note, these threads may be used for application samples, which are opening August 11th. So get your samples ready ahead of time with this meme! However, even if all participants are accepted with those characters, these threads will not be game canon.

This meme is taking place in the setting of Darstone, so while you may leave your comment blank, I'd like to recommend you set up a scene or two in your initial comment. Some suggested settings are provided below, but make up whatever you'd like based off the setting pages!


⑴ Marketplace. There's a lot to do in the market-- not just buying goods and window shopping, but sitting down for a cup of coffee at an outdoor table, or getting a drink at a bar.

⑵ Housing. You've just gotten here and finally made it to your assigned apartment, but it turns out you have roommates, and they're one of them.

⑶ Adventuring. Whether out into the surrounding caves or taking a boat onto the lake, you're adventuring, maybe on a quest. Whoever's with you might be a member of your party-- or they might be trying to beat you to the reward.

⑷ Snow. What's snow doing in a cave? Isn't this weird? Well, Darstone is situated under a frosty mountain peak, and from time to time the local mages like to simulate the weather that's going on up above. That means there's some very light, fluffy snow falling from the cave ceiling right now.

[Why is his goat not here? His goat could've dealt with this dude no problem.

Gamzee doesn't run though. It is not some misplaced form of bravery keeping him there. Instead, he is really scared, and also showing his vulnerable back to an adult already notching an arrow on his bow seems like a bad shitty idea even to him.

Instead, he just goes into instinctive defence mode, tossing his arms half over his face as if to defend it, his psionics flaring into life, much more strongly than before, coiling around him, teasing at the loose snow and the rocks underneath it, raising them into the air.]

[Whelp.]

[What another troll might recognize as defensive, Darkleer takes as aggressive, and now his arrow is notched and ready, aimed directly at Gamzee's chest. He might get smashed by rocks, but he'll manage to get at least one arrow off before he does.
]

Stand down.

[you know who have trouble reacting in a logical manner? Kids. Especially kids who have never really encountered a true battle. Gamzee does notice that Darkleer is yelling something, but between his adrenaline and the blood pounding in his ears, it's really hard to exactly understand what the adult is shouting.]

Don't fuckin' hurt me.

[Is this kid slow or what?]

[Darkleer keeps his arrow notched and aimed, and repeats himself, speaking slowly and enunciating, raising his rasp to as loud as he can make it. Which, admittedly, isn't very loud.
]

Stand. Down!

[In other words: put down those rocks, bro, and we'll both run in opposite directions and this will all be cool.]

[His lusus says he is special!

This time he comprehends the words better and though the rocks lower a fraction, they aren't completely down yet. What if this guy is just gonna shoot him when he lays down? He's heard things about adults! They are frightening and eat kids.

Yeah.

He's pretty sure they eat kids. That one forum post had seemed really reliable.]
sagitterrifying: (loooooom)

On the ground!

[Darkleer is getting fed up here, and he gestures with his arrow, motioning towards the rocks and then towards the ground.]

[personal profile] temperamentalcultist 2012-08-06 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
You first.

[He's not actually suicidal. He's not killing his psionics while some dude still has an arrow pointed at him.]

[Infuriating little brat! Good instincts, though. Darkleer will give him that.]

[He lowers his arrow a fraction.
]

Same time.

[You don't grow up as a lowblood on Alternia without learning some survival skills. He didn't exactly have his bloodcolour to protect him]

To the count of three?

[Darkleer lowers his arrow a little more.]

One.

[personal profile] temperamentalcultist 2012-08-06 03:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Two.

[Look he can count too!

The rocks tremble a little, lowering themselves.]
sagitterrifying: (glowing glasses)

[personal profile] sagitterrifying 2012-08-06 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Three.

[And the arrow is pointing at the ground now, a few feet away from Gamzee's sneakers.]
